Exploring generosity

http://www.dreamstime.com/-image23988225

Qualities of soul, such as love, play, generosity and abundance are at the very heart of our success — in life, and in business.

By choosing to cultivate those qualities which are closest to your heart, you add to the sum of these qualities in your own life, in your business and your world.

Each quality is held by a Deva, a subtle energy being who is the pattern-holder for the perfect unfolding of that quality in the world.

The Deva of Generosity invites us to play with it this week.

And, since structures are containers that help hold those qualities of soul essence that we want to cultivate in ourselves and in our world, consider creating a structure for yourself, to explore the spirit of generosity in your life and business this week.

Here’s one possible container in which you might play with generosity, this week. You can make up others — be creative and dream up containers that feel joyful and buoyant as well as grounded and nurturing, for you:

  • Invite the Deva of Generosity to infuse your world with its presence.
  • Be receptive to what it has to show you about your unfolding relationship with generosity.
  • Is this a quality that’s already well-developed within you?
  • Are you more generous with others than you are with yourself? Or the other way around?
  • Are you generous with your business?

Attune to the Deva of Generosity first thing in the morning, before you get out of bed, and last thing at night, before you drift off to sleep.

  • On each of the first two mornings, choose 3 specific actions you will take that day, to be generous towards yourself. Write them down in your journal.
  • On each of the next two mornings, add one action you will take that day, to be generous towards your business. Generosity can be as simple as embracing your difficulties in a loving and spacious heart, or taking the time to tune into your deep desires and giving yourself exactly what you want that day.
  • On the final three mornings of the week, add one action you will take that day, that extends generosity to your world.

When you attune to the Deva of Generosity at the end of your day, review the ways in which you’ve fulfilled your intentions/completed your acts of generosity for that day.

What has changed, in your understanding of and relationship with generosity?

What do you need to dissolve, release, add or expand in yourself, your life, your business, your world, to be part of the activity of the Deva of Generosity?

Keep this exploration light-hearted, playful, and fun.

The Deva of Kindness


The Deva of Grace

The Deva of Mercy

For today
shed the cloak of judgment.

Enrobe yourself in mercy
in the silk of love.

Let the wind cradle you, waft you
to the next horizon.

Be light. Be free.

The Deva of Truth

The Deva of Truth offers the bedrock of truth as the foundation on which your life can rest today.

Beyond your dreams, your drama, your hopes and wishes, the truth of your life shines with a quiet radiance.

What is true for you, today?

What will you do with it, once you know it?

The Deva of Unity

The Deva of Unity accompanies us into this final week of June, and the start of the summer.

What feels fragmented or separated — within you, within your business?

When you attune to the Deva of Unity, and bring that feeling into those places of separation, what happens? What does Unity feel like to you today?

Business can be overwhelming — lots of moving parts to keep track of; so much to get done.

And yet, we have our being along a continuum, from unity and essence to pattern and form.

When you stand in the unity end of the continuum of being, and bring the gifts and powers of wholeness to bear on the choices and actions you take, day-to-day, your life and your business flourish.

Magical opportunities unfold.

Where are you meeting the everyday challenges of your business from a place of inner Unity?
Where are you not?
How do you experience the difference?

The Deva of Love

The Deva of Love welcomes us into its world this week.

What happens — in you, in your world, in your business — when you bring everything into the heart of Love?

The issues you’re grappling with, that seem so thorny, so tenacious.
Your business.
Your thoughts and feelings, beliefs, patterns and pictures.
Your gifts and joys, your challenges and sorrows.

Love is the most powerful force there is — it is the presence and activity of the Sacred within everything.

As we begin this week of the summer solstice, explore where Love lives, in you. In your business. In your ecology.

And as you go through your days, be mindful of the choices you make, moment to moment.

Choose love.

Choose love.

Be a source of love. Become part of the activity of the Deva of Love.

    a fractal of the Sacred,
    a fractal of Wholeness.
